"Truthiness" in action!

Quick note on this family day... "That blogger" is now referring to me as "gas guzzlin bus guy"... granted, this was while he was relaying already disreputed studies that he believes means we should all hook a hose from the nearest coal burning electrical generating plant's chimneys to our homes 'cuz the emmisions are oh so good for us. (Can someone hook him up NOW PLEASE!?!?!)

Thanks to Wiki for the image... Thanks to Sheryl Leach as well...

Anyway, I want to quickly cover off the "gas guzzlin bus guy"...

See here (January 12th, 2008) and here (August 4th, 2006).

Most of the "pro-pollution folks" (like this blogger is... he HONESTLY does support MORE POLLUTION and has tried to claim MORE POLLUTION IS GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT...) when I show them the above posts don't get it. I showed that blogger the above posts... and yup, he didn't get it.

I should care that much... he finds the Jewish Holocaust endlessly amusing (using images and whatnot to "make fun" of other things and "boltser points"...) and this is just ONE of the reasons I will not link to him as I do believe he's an embarassment to THINKING Conservatives and Canadians as a whole.

Thanks to Wiki for the image... Thanks to Sheryl Leach as well...

"Barney" (the blogger's new name here...) also doesn't like the fact that QUESTIONS WERE ANSWERED...

...but, of course, sources that don't work for petro-chemical companies, The Energy Lobby (any form of energy lobby in Canada), or were not from the Bush Administration/American government are inadmissable...

...this includes one with a "bad link" that answered one of his challenges... which I bolstered with asking Barney to argue with The British Antarctic Survey of 2006/2007, Dr. Isabella Velicogna’s work with The University of Colorado at Boulder, and the findings of GRACE from The University of Texas at Austin... but as we all know, The University of Texas, University of Colorado, and The Royal Society are all in bed with China. Just ask Barnerrific!

I was done with Barney a while back... but I did want to point out that if Barney still considers us to be hypocrites because of our "gas guzzling" ways, considering Barney SAID they had read the links I show above... well... that makes Barney someone with a tenuous grasp of the "truth" and "facts".

...but then again, according to The Barnster, sucking up the exhaust from your car is just the best darned thing in the world for you and your children!

Way to go, Barney!

Thanks to Wiki for the image... Thanks to Sheryl Leach as well...

You've been a pantload. Go suck a tail-pipe for your health!

Addendum - Feb 19th: Barnster is now whining on his blog that he has ALWAYS known the difference between "pollution" and "CO2"... despite the fact that the study he spewed forth was PRO-burning coal for electrical generation (it was written by the leader of the coal lobby in England,) and when I CLEARLY said that in essence, all I wanted to say was pollution was bad, he did NOT say "Well, you're right... Carbon monoxide and sulfur from burning fossil fuel and coal is bad... but I stand by my feelings on Global Warming!"... which is what I was TRYING to get him (and others) to do... nope... he attacked, attacked, attacked... and ignored... and mocked... and proved his lack of literacy... but like I said, he couldn't "hate" a moderate... and he NEEDED to hate.

Must remind self: This moron (Barnacle) is an embarasment to thinking Canadian Conservatives and pretty much every Canadian in general... they are NOT indicative of the ACTUAL "Right"... they are truly "marginal" in all aspects.

Hey Penelope Anne... Odd, it's only posted once... and I only posted it once... and I didn't even "ping" it. Must be a "Google-Reader" bug.

This blog is called One Old Green Bus. Yup, the bus is green. What colour is the bus?

The Current Time in Toronto is...


One Old Green Bus

Allow me to start with we do not own nor are we selling a bus. Just had to get that out...

This blog was started in April of 2006... during a very bad time for me and my family when money was very tight and life was very hard.

We maintained a happier outlook on life by fantasizing... talking about what we would do when times were better... and as Sue and myself are Anglophiles, England factored greatly into our "plans".

During these bad times, while looking at news items which, at the time included items about London removing their venerable old Routemasters, I came across one photo of an old green bus... and somehow, my whole family adopted it. It became very much "our bus". (Details about "our bus" are available by clicking here.)

Like most of you, I'd heard about the fellow who'd made a million dollars selling tiny ads online... and the fellow who did trades and turned a paper clip into a house... so I thought, since we couldn't make our bus actually into "our bus" (well beyond our means,) I'd try an "online" appeal... to make the focused item of our hopes into a tangible thing in our lives...

More specifically, in a burst of adult/juvenile optimism, I had hoped to show the youngest member of the family, who at the time was still very youthful and impressionable, that dreams really could become reality if you hope and, more importantly, try.

Well, I'm pretty sure you figured it out... we had limited succes in this venture... and the youngest has now reached an age where she is more traditionally "teenaged" cynical than much else about the world, which isn't a dreadful thing... but there's a "good news" portion to this... our personal situation with money is better, life has improved, and some people really liked my rambling here... so, I decided to keep things going... Yes, I will "give up" on asking for help on a bus... and have to give up on even trying as hard to get the bus through online means... and yes, be far more realistic... but I don't mind this "turn" of things as I actually enjoy venting, trying my hand at humour, and generally keeping on online presence outside my usual things.

Thanks to those who were/are "Busly Dream" enthusiasts... I suppose that our buses for now will be single-deck with the letters "TTC" emblazoned on them... but this blog will live as does our dream! (It's just a little quieter on that latter bit...)
